When: October 28, 2008

You saw his killer, six-pack look in the ‘Ghajini’ posters. Now, you can witness his enticing perform in the movie as Aamir Khan officially unveiled the first trailer of Ghajini this Diwali. ‘Ghajini’ was slated for a Diwali release this year, but got delayed due to Aamir’s knee injury while shooting for the movie.

Here’s what Aamir had to say in a press conference in Mumbai, “We were planning to release the film on Diwali, but it did not happen because of my injury, so we decided to at least unveil its first look on this day, Ghajini is important film for me as it is an out and out commercial movie which I am doing after a long time.” Aamir told reporters.

He also wished everyone a happy Diwali.

On the absence of director A.R. Murugadoss on the occasion, Aamir said: “The post-production work for the film is going on full swing and our director is extremely busy with it.”

‘Ghajini’ is a Hindi adaptation of the Tamil film made by Murugadoss himself by the same name. The film is said to be inspired by the critically acclaimed film ‘Memento’ by Christopher Nolan on the theme of the protagonist suffering from anterograde amnesia (short term memory loss) and seeking revenge for his wife’s murder.

If the first poster of Ghajini is anything to bo by… this one looks like a HOT release. Aamir looks awesome to say the least. See for yourself…

Here is first promo of Aamir Khan’s Ghaj ini (2008). Aamir rocks in this video & Asin sizzles. A must see!

Shahid Kapur will soon be seen in a new avatar, that of a sensitive and caring teacher in Paathshala. Produced by Ahmed Khan (Lakeer, Fool N Final) and directed by Milind Ukey, Paathshala has Kapur essaying the role of an English and music teacher who helps nurture a bunch of mischievous and troubled kids.

Excited to be emulating one of his favorite actors Aamir Khan, Sha-K is looking forward to the film with much anticipation. Ahmed Khan too is looking forward to producing a film that he says, “In Paathshaala, I’m doing a film straight from my heart.”

Several recognizable child artists will be members of the Paathshala cast, such as Swini Khara (Cheeni Kum), Haji Ali (Tara Rum Pum) and Dwij Yadav (Nanhe Jaisalmer).

We remember two that both Sha-K and Ahmed were also child artists at one time. Khan was in Shekhar Kapoor’s Mr. India. In light of this fact Khan comments, “We’re all putting our minds together to look into the mind of a child and the child within a man.”

Paathshala’s school set has been erected at Film City. “We even have a basketball court,” says Khan.

Although an original script, Paathshala being written a year before Aamir Khan’s latest super hit Taare Zameen Par, producer Ahmed Khan admits there are similarities between the two films. We’ll just have to wait for the release to find out how many similarities really do exist. Will it become a super hit too? Only time will tell.
